Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned oats (80g)
- 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (31g) I used PEScience (code Laurenfitfoodie to save 10%)
- 1/4 cup canned pumpkin (60g)
- 1/4 cup drippy nut butter (56g) I used American Dream (code Laurenfitfoodie to save 10%)
- 2 Tbsp sugar free pancake syrup (30g) can sub for pure maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds (12g)
- 1 Tbsp sweetener of choice (12g) I used Swerve
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp mini chocolate chips (30g)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients (except the chocolate chips) to a food processor and mix until all ingredients are combined well. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Use a small cookie scoop to scoop out 16 balls (about a heaping tablespoon in size), or however many you wish. After scooping, roll into balls with your hands. You can dampen your palms with a little water or nonstick spray to help prevent sticking.
- Keep stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
To make vegan: sub pancake syrup for pure maple syrup; use a plant-based protein powder, ensure your chocolate chips are dairy-free.
